As Mentar said, fantastic episode, perhaps the best yet by virtue of the skillful building of tension paired with slick animation which is certainly equal to if not better than episode one. All the characters are correctly drawn, smoothly animated and the pacing just right.

However it's the introduction of Hans which is the biggest revelation here; he's genuinely terrifying and an opponent unlike any Section III have dealt with before. The scene early one when he torches two soldiers is brutal and gruesome in the extreme - the most violent scene so far in this show. His chant of 'Cold, cold' is just ...well chilling.

9 from me also, and I hope the second half of the series is like this all the way.
